Paul Revere & The Raiders - Save The Country Lyrics






Come on, people, come on, children
Come on down to the glory river.
Gonna wash you up, and wash you down,
Gonna lay the devil down, gonna lay that devil down.
I got fury in my soul,fury's gonna take me to the glory goal
In my mind I can't study war no more.
Save the people, save the children, save the country now

Come on, people come on, children
Come on down to the glory river
Gonna wash you up and wash you down
Gonna lay the devil down, gonna lay that devil down

Come on people! Sons and mothers
Keep the dream of the two young brothers
Gonna take that dream and ride that dove

We could build the dream with love, I know,
We could build the dream with love, I know,
We could build a dream with love, children,
We could build the dream with love, oh people,
We could build the dream with love, I know,
We could build the dream with love.

Come on, people! Come on, children!
There's a king at the glory river

And the precious king, he loved the people to sing;
Babes in the blinkin' sun sang
"We Shall Overcome".

  1. C.... H....

    I prefer the 5th Dimension's arrangement. Something sounds off, here.

  2. A.... D....

    Can't understand why this wasn't a single. Much better than the 5th Dimension's version.

  3. T.... T....

    Had this album for years. Loved it. Sadly I notice even though the arrangement and performance is stellar, the brass instruments are sadly out of tune and made this recording a notch below what it could have been, and yes I have a music degree but you don;t have to be a musician to hear how out of tune they are with each other. the Raiders band is in tune but the brass is not in tune with them or each other. Ouch! esp toward the end.

    Very fine rendition of a good song!
